Love Island star Anna Vakili has spoken out amid reports that she’s secretly rowing with her younger sister Mandi because she’s “trying to steal her limelight” after leaving the villa.

The 28-year-old faced claims that she and Mandi, who was due to appear on the ITV2 show but was ditched at the last minute, is making a bid to become a reality TV star, causing a rivalry between the siblings.

But Anna has furiously hit out at the claims as she took to Instagram to say she actually wants Mandi to be in the spotlight too.

The TV star said: “Something came out about me and my sister have had an argument because I feel like she’s trying to steal my limelight, which is the biggest joke. It’s ridiculous.

“I love my sister so much, more than anything in the world. And we argue. A lot. But we never argue about that, I would never argue with her stealing my limelight. If anything, I want her to take the limelight.”

A source told The Sun: “Anna and Mandi are both very strong willed and don’t always see eye to eye. Mandi has been living the celebrity lifestyle with Anna since she left the show and she’s been loving the attention.

"Her Instagram followers have shot up and she’s even doing competitions on her page.

“Like all siblings they sometimes bicker and Anna is constantly trying to tell her to calm down and not say sure wild things online - she wants her to stop stealing the limelight.”
